You know sometimes it just gets to you, your awkward stance over a keyboard, or you're using a smaller then/than normal one, or larger then normal "Chiklet" keypad, you keep making the same typo/s over and over, Well, What one do you find just drives you mad??

I hate it when people use "then" where they should use "than".

[Chunkyman]

No matter what, I can never spell "necessary" without spellcheck.

Until I typed it just now, and somehow spelled it correctly the first time...

[Guns N R0se]

WHen I try to capitalize things and end up capitalizing the first two letters like at the beginning of this sentence. It's small and stupid, but it bothers me.

[sonnyBlack]

It drives me crazy when people mix your and you're up.

[Slamman]

Don't I know it, I get crap for too many of these "," Commas could be a typo of sorts, and I just typed "typos", where it's seemingly natural to type a full word or familiar word, and all you want is the shorter context

[fireguy109]

Run-on sentences annoy me. Also, the aforementioned "your" and "you're", as well as "there" "their" and "they're".

[Moonshield]

Hanging prepositions make me want to hang the person.

[GTA_stu]

Doesn't really bother me when other people make them, unless it is just a train wreck of an attempt at English by a native English speaker. But I hate it when I do it. "Separate" is a word I constantly misspell by putting a 2nd E after P instead of an A. Can't really think of too many other than that one.

I'm guilty of conversational typing. I also tend to wait till the batteries in my keyboard are totally dead before replacing them. Couple all of that with my habit of drunk posting along with my public school upbringing and well...I just don't give a sh*t.

I'd rather read through bad typos and bad grammar than have to hear you bastards talk all at once.

This is one word that always catches me out, too. It annoys the hell out of me because if I ever need to write it out, I'm not going to have spell-checker there to save me.

Incorrect spelling gets on my nerves a fair bit, as does text-speak and all the associated crap that goes with it. I think the misuse of punctuation is worse though. Fair enough, I don't expect everyone to know every last detail about correct punctuation but the least they can do is try. I'm not perfect but at least my sentences make sense.

[Craig]

Blatant misspelling of words really winds me up. Seeing "waist" spelled as "waste" is just... ugh.

[lil weasel]

People don't make that meny TYPO's usually its just that theyre just lousy spellhers and dont car(no what i men)
Sometimes it's typing too fast or just they don't know the word is spelt wrong.
Like: wich (Which). I see that alot (a lot).

[Irviding]

I hate when people use the plural "their" in a singular context. For example - "every person has their own belief on the topic" pisses the f*ck out of me.

[zoo3891]

Usually other people's misspellings don't bug me. But when people completely avoid punctuation/capitalization, or TYPE WHILE THEIR FINGER IS RAPING THE SHIFT KEY I have a problem.

What about the Vulgar/Taboo words which arn't a TYPO and are totally unneeded.

Not a native english speaker here, but i always thought that using 'their' in this context is the best way to say it, because 'every' person could be both male and female, so 'his/her' does't sound right, 'its' is for an inanimate object. What is the best word to use then?

I Hate It When People Capitalize The First Letter In Every Word, like in that part of the sentence. However, that might not be a typo, it's probably just idiocy.

I also hate when people use a comma as a replacement for the period,

Every person has his or her own belief on this topic.

[darthYENIK]

I often catch myself typing "one" instead of "won". I don't think I've ever let it by, but I fear it to death.
